How to redirect www to non-www with subdomain pattern?

Question

I have hard time making nginx redirection to non-www for subdomain of example.com.

Basically what I want to is:

1. redirect all http to https 80 to 443
2. keep api.exmaple.com
3. keep example.com
4. keep www.example.com
5. redirect https://www.subdomain.example.com to https://subdomain.example.com

And below code does not work, and according to nginx www redirect to non-www with subdomain it seems that it should work.

Appreciate all help. Please advise!
